I wouldn't even be discussing this if it wasn't for the type of QB that could potentially be available in Wilson and Watson. It has nothing to do with Tua, Wilson and Watson are rare QB's that NEVER become available at this point in their careers. There are only a handful of elite QB's, the chance of Tua being as good as Watson or Wilson are so slim, otherwise every team would have elite QB's. There is no sure thing draft pick. I still don't understand why so many of you guys over value our draft picks, have you seen our draft history? I bet Bills fans don't regret giving up a 1st round pick for Diggs. I know you guys would have lost your minds if we did that.
And I don’t get why so many people are all over these guys jock straps either. Neither is Marino or Elway etc.
Many claim these guys are so elite that TUA or any other young QB could never obtain their level.
I counter that argument with this...where were they rated coming out compared to TUA? They were lower.
Where they after year 1? Both Certainly had “some” success, but NO ONE was calling them elite after year 1.
Both had superior offenses with them early on in their careers compared to TUA.
Wilson rode the back of his defense to early success JUST as TUA did this past year, and there was nothing special early on about Wilson.
IMO while he is a top tier QB right now, there is nothing “so super elite” about him or Watson to suggest we can’t get that quality out of TUA in the near future. Again, these guys are not top tier all time.
As great as they are, TUA has many natural traits that they do not have. Many coaches and scouts etc. have repeatedly talked about his elite release time, elite decision making time skills, and elite accuracy and ball placement. Those are things which can’t be taught and are God given just as speed and arm strength are. Give him time and quit panicking over these 2 guys, both of whom would handicap us both financially and with reduced draft picks.
